The Boiling Point of Stavropol State Agrarian University hosted the international forum "Modern Challenges of Rural Development: Social, Economic, Organizational and Legal Aspects". University scientists made presentations on the problems of agricultural territories of the region.
The forum was attended by about 200 people. The event brought together Mexico, Belarus, China, Uzbekistan and more than 15 Russian partner universities.
The purpose of the forum is to create a platform for a fruitful dialogue between scientists, practitioners and the scientific community to summarize research work and integrate theoretical and practical knowledge on socio-economic, organizational and legal problems of rural development.
– It is no coincidence that we chose the Boiling Point site for the forum. This is where we generate new ideas and try to bring them to life. I am sure that the questions raised will be in tune with the problems to be solved. One of the main theses for today is practical orientation. We have 20 representatives of production, so we will synchronize our reports with the practical component of the development of rural areas, - said Vice-Rector for Educational Work and Youth Policy, Candidate of Technical Sciences, Professor Ivan Atanov.
The first report was presented by the Dean of the Faculty of Social and Cultural Service and Tourism, Head of the Department of Tourism and Service, Candidate of Economic Sciences, Associate Professor Anna Ivolga.
